The initial Rivals300 for the Class of 2028 was released on Monday, and there’s no shortage of potential Penn State players, with the Nittany Lions already recruiting more than 70 players who made the list.

That includes the Nittany Lions’ lone commitment at the moment, as cornerback CB Deonte Flemings is ranked No. 134 nationally in the ranking. The Erie, Pa., native is also the fourth-ranked player in the state. Overall, Pennsylvania has 10 players who made the initial Rivals300. That doesn’t include running back Tahmere Brown, who’s from Philadelphia but plays at The Pennington School in New Jersey.

The Keystone State is also home to the No. 1 player in the country, wide receiver Jett Harrison from St. Joseph’s Prep in Philadelphia. He’s the son of former Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Marvin Harrison and the younger brother of Marvin Harrison Jr. Western Pennsylvania has the state’s other two Top 100 players in Avonworth’s Ath. Jaden Jones (No. 78) and Hopewell’s James Armstrong (No. 90).

Throughout the region, New Jersey appears to be the deepest, with 13 New Jersey players represented on the list. The state also has five players among the top 100 prospects nationally: CB Amiir Woodward (No. 9), CB Nasir Richardson (No. 12), LB Tahj Gray (No. 27), QB Lukas Prock (No. 57)) and WR Mekhi Parker (No. 80).

As of now, 14 players on the list below also have an unofficial visit set with Penn State for March or April. Fans can check out the list of Penn State prospects inside the Rivals300 below.
